In this episode of The Natural Heart Doctor Show , I sit down with Catharine Arnston, PhD , a friend of nearly a decade and the founder of ENERGYbits. Our introduction was not exactly professional. My one-year-old daughter crawled off at a conference and came back with green all over her mouth, having helped herself to a bag of Catharine's tablets. That moment is a decent summary of the whole…
In this solo episode of The Natural Heart Doctor Show , I take on one of the most common questions I hear: what do you actually do about high blood pressure? My answer starts by reframing the reading itself. A high number is a sign that something deeper is going on, and one factor that too often gets missed is nitric oxide, a gas your body makes that signals the muscle in your artery walls to…
In this conversation with Patti Wartella-Simab on Coffee with Patti , I share how I went from mainstream cardiologist to the Natural Heart Doctor.

Ari walks through the work of Dr. Robert Naviaux and the ‘cell danger response,’ the idea that your mitochondria are constantly reading the environment and deciding whether to make…
Cardiologists spend their careers talking about cholesterol. On this episode, I wanted to go one level deeper, down to the cell membrane, because that's where heart health is really decided. Justine Stenger has spent years studying phospholipids like phosphatidylcholine, the fats that build the membranes wrapping every one of your cells and your mitochondria. We talk about why the membrane, not…
The calcium leaving your bones may be the same calcium hardening your arteries. On this episode of The Natural Heart Doctor Show , Dr. Jack Wolfson sits down with Kevin Ellis, the Forbes-featured integrative health coach behind BoneCoach, to map the real link between bone loss and cardiovascular risk.
